PETE HEGSETH (HOST): As Texas is literally overrun with illegal immigrants, our self-centered leaders in the swamp are erecting walls that apparently work and calling in the National Guard over a tiny peaceful protest. And, of course, predictably, the left wing media laps it all up.

You see, Democrats don't care about protecting you or me or the border or our nation. They only care about protecting themselves, their political position, and their livelihood. And that's why they're ignoring the border. It doesn't affect them, except they hope in the future at the ballot box.

...

The border, crime, COVID, inflation -- all distractions. Mayor Joe Biden, Vice President Giggles, and their usefully useless DHS secretary had bigger plans and they are determined to pass 3.5 trillion of them. Your safety and sovereignty just don't matter in comparison.
